Queens is the second-most populous NYC borough and the largest in terms of area. It may often stand in the shadow of Manhattan or Brooklyn to outsiders, but there’s nothing small or unassuming here. It’s a mix of single-family homes and dense apartment buildings, high-rise office buildings and large green spaces. It’s both the most diverse borough and the safest. No wonder it’s popular with families and young professionals alike. This largest borough has enough room for everyone. Make sure to check out the Queens Chinatown- it’s even larger than Manhattan’s.
Though Queens offers some bargains relative to the rest of NYC, it still has some high housing costs. The average rent on a one-bedroom apartment is $1,899, up 3% over 2021. The median house price is $755K, up 4% from 2021. Moving to Queens may involve downsizing.
Thankfully, there are self-storage facilities all over Queens. These can help make your move easier and more affordable- even in NYC, it’s more affordable than you might expect. If you’re planning to move to this great NYC borough, be sure to keep self-storage in mind!
